BOYNEXTDOOR won the Favorite Dance Performance Group award at the '2024 MAMA AWARDS' held at Kyocera Dome Osaka on the 22nd. The members expressed, 'Thanks to ONEDOOR (the name of the fans), we were able to stand on such a big stage today. We never expected this. The six of us truly love music and the stage. We will always strive to show our growth. We are preparing for a tour and comeback soon, so we hope for a lot of expectations.' During the live performance, they added storytelling from VCR to the stage, providing enjoyment with the concept of a graduation party. They delivered a performance worthy of their group catchphrase, 'BOYNEXTDOOR, which you can believe and see.' When the shy boy Eunhak, who is about to have a graduation party, transformed into a nice guy, the title track 'Nice Guy' from their specially arranged 3rd EP resonated. Following him, Riu appeared and showcased a splendid performance. As Jehyun and Tesan arrived in a sports car and Sonho and Ihan joined while toasting, the venue erupted with cheers. The six members utilized the entire stage, delivering a lively live performance that resonated throughout the dome. In particular, their stable vocals and unwavering performance captivated both eyes and ears. Just when it seemed the show would end with a shy confession song for their favorite friends, thunder suddenly struck, changing the atmosphere. The six members expressed their disappointment in unrequited love with the title track 'Earth, Wind & Fire' from their 2nd EP, captivating the audience until the end. They will hold their first solo concert 'BOYNEXTDOOR TOUR『KNOCK ON Vol.1』IN INCHEON' on December 14 and 15 at Inspire Arena in Incheon, and plan to tour 13 cities in Asia, including Japan.
